This Blog post is about me and my boyfriend, our 1 year together. I just want to share the best feeling this boy made me feel for the past months.

So, it was October 18, 2010, my first day as a trainee at The Peninsula Manila in Makati. We have our orientation, tour around the hotel and some other stuff. Because I’am a Culinary student I was assigned at the Cafeteria of the Hotel. This is where I met my ever loving boyfriend, Romnick Pielago.

He happens to be my so called “Chef” there. He pretty much handles all trainees in Sunburst (Cafeteria). My first week working there was the “getting to know” stage, not just for me and romnick but also to my other Chefs and co-trainees. It was fun, I’ve met new awesome people.🙂

One day, the other trainees and my Chefy Babe decided to go out together. So, we went to trinoma (me, romnick & adan) and waited for the other 2 (Cha & Vina) to arrive, pero si Adan kailangan na umalis. So, kami na lang ni romnick naiwan. This is where i think everything started. Kwentuhan to the max kami dalawa. Lovelife, Career, Life. After nang gala namen na toh, naging close na kami ni romnick.

Finally, December 08, 2010, It’s official! I finally said YES to him. I made him very happy. Im ure of that!🙂 you wanna know why? kasi the next day after ko siya sagutin. Super di matanggal ngiti niya sa cafeteria. HAHA

Now, It’s been 1 year and I keep on falling in love with him like the first day.. I love him like I love my Mom, Dad, Sister, Brother. This guy is very close to my heart. I always thanks God na binigyan niya ako nang lalaking sobrang inaalagaan ako at di kayang mawala ako sa kanya..

My class for today shall start at 9 a.m but because I need to leave the house early, I arrived at School at 6:30 in the morning.

So, forgive the face, I’m still sleepy.. I have nothing to do here so i’ve decided to have a blog on how early i went to class. :) Probably, my classmates are still asleep as of the moment. While I”am here at our school lobby alone and HUNGRY!😀

This blog entry is for our Marketing Class. So here it goes.
We are students of CCA, and were on our 9th level. We’re taking our Marketing Class and we have this activity in which we need to market the class of Level 4 students handled by Chef Trisha Ocampo and create a blog of our dining experience. BLO is an abbreviation for Breakfast and Lunch Operation. Students from this class operate their own kitchen from doing the Market list, operating their own kitchen, housekeeping and accounting.

To Taste

It is a fusion cuisine style restaurant. We dine for breakfast and it’s quite okay.
To Taste is what they named their operation. For breakfast we had Goto, Tapsilog with Garlic Fried Rice and Salted Egg. The main was followed by pandesal with an assortment of preserves and a fruit cup. Traditional Filipino breakfast, carbs all the way, but we’re chefs in the making so we need our energy.

We started off with the goto, it was good, not too heavy leaving room for our main meal.

The typical Filipino portions, the plating was good, but an improvement to it could be to arrange the salted egg and tomatoes where it would be more visible. But overall, a very filling meal.

The main was followed by the pandesal and the fruit cup with assorted preserves. By this time, we were all pretty much stuffed, but we enjoyed this plate nonetheless.

Overall, the meal was filling, aesthetically pleasing and a good steal for only P75! If you are in the Katipunan area, definitely come to CCA and check out the Breakfast Lunch Operations, but hurry because they’re only open for another two weeks!

Like every class we had on CCA, we always have our ALP/ Alternative Learning Program in every subjects we have. This time, it’s for our HRM and Purchasing Class. We Went to Taal Vista, Tagaytay last Friday Sept. 09, 2011; we arrived at around 9 am and immediately unpack our stuff. At around 9:30 am we went down to the lobby and we have this short tour to their facilities like their purchasing office, storage room, pastry kitchen and etc. after the tour we went to the function room and the Purchasing Manager and the HR manager gives us a small talk regarding the functions of their respective departments, How their operations work. After the orientation, we went out for lunch at Leslies, a Filipino style restaurant.
